Thanks for sharing! I grew up in Flagstaff, 1976-1985, born in Phoenix in 1971. Since then, I have lived in all four corners of the USA, traveled extensively (35 states, 5 continents, 25 countries). As of lately, now in my 50s, I have been looking at moving back. My father is buried there, and I would like to retire around Flagstaff; it will be like coming home. Lots of mileage under my belt. Ready for the quiet life. But it sure has grown! It was only 40k in the 70s.

26 years ago in Downtown Flagstaff we picked up our license for a marriage down in Sedona. If housing was more affordable I’d move there in a heartbeat.

Capital of the legion

I was born and raised in Flagstaff. Best childhood memories! ❤️🧸

Very beautiful city, I like this style of place watching from here in Brazil 🇧🇷

Been there a couple of times while traveling. Flagstaff has this unique and historic vibe to it and the people I've met were so relaxed and friendly. Thanks for sharing. Greetings from Germany.

It is truly a unique and historical place to live and visit. Also, Flagstaff is the home of Lowell Observatory. At 127 years young, Lowell is one of the oldest Observatories in the USA. Additionally, Lowell was where former 9th planet Pluto was discovered in 1930.

@0:37 😍 how pretty!!!! Looks really nice. It almost seems like it could be a movie set.

My brother lived there in Flagstaff for a while but now lives in Williams in a house where it is on solid rock and he has to have a cistern or water holding tank for his water to use and drink in his house. Most jobs in the Flagstaff area are primarily tourist related or hospitality related. If you are able to be a remote worker there, it would be great for you there. Any other jobs would have to be jobs where you can work independently or on your own. In other words there is not a lot of industry there at all.

Thanks for the "First Friday" walkabout in the downtown area...I really enjoyed it...Boy that was quite crowded and uncomfortable for me more than a couple of times walking on the sidewalks. But then I'm from a small rural Northern California coastal town. I super love where I live so just letting the Arizona folks know that I don't want to move there, but just occasionally visit. They can get real protective and testy about us Californians moving there.

Flagstaff has over 80 inches of snow per year. That is huge, it is more than in Colorado! It must be a winter paradise

I grew up in Tempe Arizona, every year in junior high and high school we would go to NAU for our band conference! I love Flagstaff, As an adult I enjoy the hotel Monte Vista and the speakeasy! I’m going next month for my birthday💕♎️

I Love Flagstaff. Its so beautiful. I try to visit every yr.

this place is amazing. thank you for sharing

I drive across country at least once a year and i look forward to Flagstaff the most. It's beautiful. My favorite place in the United States. Well, tied with Park City, Utah.

7000 feet? Wow! Almost as high as Park City, Utah. Similar vibes, too.

My family has been in flagtown for over 80 years, we love this town and have done our best effort to make it thrive. Thanks for loving my town

I lived there for many years. Great place for the outdoors people.

Thank you for these videos.

I used to live in flagstaff, pretty nice to see you tour it

We live in Sedona. We debated between FLG and Sedona when we moved to AZ from FL in 2005. Decided on Sedona because of the milder winters. We love taking day trips to FLG especially during the warm summer days here. Such a fun and friendly city. Great video!

Excellent video very high quality picture. Made me feel like I was right there. Thank you so much.

I had a chance to study at NAU for the fall semester in ‘97. State university of NY had a domestic exchange program. I loved it up there so much. I miss seeing those peaks every day on my walks around everywhere. I wish I got to see more of downtown, but I was pretty short on cash and didn’t turn 21 until the last weeks of my stay.

I love Flagstaff & was here during this video making actually & see myself Lol . Bt anyhows we had a great time here & being around this town is great & the wining & dining is great & meeting new people's & the shopping is great also. And love the scenic areas & places that are around Flagstaff also . And I look forward to returning here soon ..

I love living here 😄

enjoyed it...thank you...

Wow looks pretty and nice.

Thanks a lot , God bless !

Great video, Jeff!!!

I was born and raised in Flagstaff and I sure miss it! Whenever I tell people I’m from Arizona they assume I like the hot desert heat, nope! Most who’ve not been have no idea there is a large portion often state not like Phoenix! I moved to WA many years ago but I’m coming back to Flag for a visit this summer and it’ll be my first time back in 20 years so I’m so looking forward to it!

Great video. Thank You 😊

Thank you 😊

Good morning -wow.professional ~))

That's it....I'm on the way...I think I will love it down there

Looks really nice! I’m thinking about moving away and I just recently discovered Flagstaff Arizona. I don’t know anything about Arizona so I will have to visit there before I move. Thank you for the wonderful video!

Nice!

I am open to receive this move father amen 🙏

very nice indeed loveit

❤️ Flag ❤️

Great video Jeff !

Nicely done

Thanks for this video well filmed! Greetings from France!

My family moved away from there 7 years ago... God I miss that place so much and I am going back home and see it again after so many years.

That was a cool Checker you walked by.

My favorite city!

Thanks you for showing that minde happier made. I lived thire for 3 month. it was one of best. I was student thire in NAU. I am konw in my contry KSA. I hope I visit agine with my children.

Went to N.A.U. 54 years ago. Loved Flagstaff Az. It was very small town also there was nothing in Sedona or Jerome. Loved Oak Creek Cayon an went there all the time. Great place to go to college at.

I was looking for myself in that video, as I was down there that night for the First Friday Art Walk! Sorry missed you, thanks for the footage!

Open to receive, this move, father! ✨🙏✨

It seems like a friendly, laid back town.💜

You can't miss Rockstacker Kombucha! Best kombucha ever

wow. thrs a dwn town flagstaff az? dang...

I would recommend Karma's bar and grill for any Asian food enthusiasts

I live there btw...😉 Love it so far! 🤣

Heading that way Sunday!!

I don’t recognize some parts of my hometown, because it’s changed so much. Was a nice place to live when the population was around 35k. Last time I visited was seven years ago. The traffic was a nightmare. Flagstaff is still one of the most beautiful cities I’ve ever experienced.

I live in Flagstaff ❤

I was watching a tv show called “The Dead Files” and they featured Flagstaff, Az. Because of it’s rich history and the railroad the down town area is haunted.

Wow! The town has changed since I graduated in 1974! 🤣

We love this, do you mind if we share a link to this video on our discover Flagstaff Page?

Very cool place ❤️I visited in March this year…. Love it

I like Flagstaff. Seems like a cool, laid back town. Was there in early May. My favorite part was the Lowell Observatory - did an afternoon visit/tour, followed by a nighttime telescope viewing of the stars! I also hiked up to the top of Humphreys Peak - the views were amazing! I checked out Walnut Canyon NM - very cool ruins set in the cliffs. Unfortunately, Sunset Crater NM and Wupatki NM were closed at the time due to the Tunnel fire.

I drive up from Dewy and visit there a couple of times a year. Very nice city, and I enjoy myself every time I go there. At 7000 feet the summers are about 30 degrees cooler than Phoenix and about 15 degrees cooler than here in Dewey. So the temps are favorable for about 7 months out of the year in Flag. That is fine if you like a cold winter as there are winter sports available there including downhill skiing. I have seen snowmobiles too. Think of Flagstaff as being in Southern Michigan as the elevation puts you in much the same temperature zone. However Flagstaff is dry, which is a plus over Michigan. Flagstaff can get a LOT of snow, so you will still be shoveling the snow off your driveway and you have to drive in it. If you are thinking of retiring there keep that in mind. You are not escaping the winters if you move to Flagstaff. The Prescott area has more of a Tennessee kind of temperature zone, with out the humidity. It has a very mild winter, and the summer is much cooler than Phoenix, but warmer than Flag. A nice happy medium. Phoenix is more like Miami without the humidity. Nice 7 months out of the year but relentless heat for 5 months. If one were to choose a place to retire, keep that in mind, as elevation is everything here in Arizona. Still, many have 2 homes. One in the Valley (Phoenix, Tucson, and the surrounding areas), for the winter. Then another home in Prescott, Flag, or around Show Low in the summer. Not a long drive.

oh man i wish i could move to flagstaff now awesome place

I’m in your video ❤

Flagstaff is like Taos, NM without the stench of patchouli.

I miss liberal Flagstaff before a lot of people moved here from other states

Excellent! I'm planning weekend Aug, 24,35, 2024!

I love Flagstaff because of it’s location. The winters are getting less severe. You did not do as good on this video as you did on the Prescott one. Did not show the surrounding attractions like the San Francisco Peaks, Snow Bowl, etc. Also no mention of the university and so many college kids. Terrible traffic at times. Still a neat town. I grew up in Prescott. Thanks for sharing.

This was a bittersweet video to watch. Flagstaff was my home from 1994-2016. I lived all over the city at different times and worked many different jobs in Flag including WL Gore and NAU. The main reason I moved away (back to the Midwest) comes at 5:17 in the vid - NAU. College kids made that beautiful town unlivable for me personally. The university presence wasn’t at all bad in the 90s, but as politics became more of a factor, the town started to take on more of an uncomfortable feel. By 2015 I had had enough of vacuous liberal elites and coffee shops with man-bun wearing hipsters that I had to get out. I had aged out of that scene. It’s so unfortunate, because as an avid mountain biker, snowboarder and lover of history, Flagstaff was perfect for me for a long time. I still go back to visit every other year or so. I know every inch of that town and miss it terribly, but don’t regret my decision to leave. Word of warning: the college kids have really taken over that once quiet, cool mountain/ski town. It’s not like in Tempe (ASU), where you can escape them into a much larger city. The whole damn town caters to these woke little turds. Every bar, restaurant, store and establishment you go into on Milton/route 66 will be inundated with annoying college kids. It just got real old. That being said, I wouldn’t trade any of my time living in such a beautiful, unique, historic town. I still miss the train noise, the smell of the ponderosa pines, and the convenience to places like Sedona, the Verde Valley and Phoenix. I see my favorite pizza place in the video - Alpine Pizza. It’s been there since 1973, but you can see it in its former incarnation in the opening credits of ‘Easy Rider’ as well as other parts of the town.

NAU Class of ‘69 and now I’m back!!

I can't remember but have you done a video on Bisbee and if so would you suggest 2 live there? I live in the east valley and am looking around 4 a place 2 retire and chill...thank you

Nice little hippie vibe town

I stayed at the Weatherford.

beers at Lumberyard, hit the Lowell observatory then omelets at the Crown Cafe....

It's a very pass through town. Everyone is from somewhere else and it feels more like California than Arizona these days...to visit, yeah of course, but to live here is very different...if your not going to NAU or have some longtime friends or family, you'll find it very boring and lonely...that was my experience....

Love it all just hate that cali keeps flooding in.

Check out Hereford, AZ; it is as beautiful as Sedona.

I heard Flagstaff is great for Astronomy nerds.

👍

Hi, what is the status of the Monsoons up in that area currently? Last I heard, they have some areas up there recovering from flash flooding.

I think I rather live in Flagstaff than in the it's always summer Phoenix.

Was in Flagstaff two-weeks ago for son's wedding.

It's so crowded now.

Was anyone else on that school bus with me in 1986 heading up to Camp Colton? We would sing this song " They say at Camp Colton, the milk is mighty fine, but when you take a sip of it , it tastes like......" Know the rest?

It's weird seeing all the places I've been to countless times through the eyes of someone who is fairly new to flag

where was West of the Moon? My favorite art gallery.

Dang it I really want to visit Flagstaff but work and I would have to save up! Ps. What's the nightlife there like? What bars are great to meet girls?

Is this like lake tahoe of the south west?

How is the weather there? And Why the rents are too expensive? Thank you.

Looks like a very clean and interesting town. Thanks for the great 👍 video.

NTS nearly 30k of the 75k population are NAU.

how hot does flagstaff get in the summer

Do they get monsoons like in Phoenix?

Very informative and entertaining to see this walking tour! thanks

At the 6:18 minute mark, the picture hanging in the hotel, look at the lower level. There are windows or doors or rooms below the ground! Mud flood evidence. Who would build like that? They didn't. All of these old buildings were inherited after a catastrophic mud flood event on the face of the earth. Also at the 5:20 minute mark, the building on the left across the street - it's below the rebuilt, road. Man with horse and buggy didn't build these buildings. Inherited!

I’ve been watching your videos for years. I’ve seen more people here in Flagstaff 😂 everywhere else in Arizona he don’t see any humans walking around 😢

How are you doing Jeff how’s the raptor doing

Flagstaff is nice...I really enjoyed my stay there, but it has some serious growing pains, like over populated now and flooding...
